Washington Spirit waives forward Crystal Thomas

Thomas was signed by the Spirit on April 27, 2017 and made one National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) appearance against the Houston Dash on April 29. She played 30 minutes in Washington’s 1-0 loss to the Dash at the Maryland SoccerPlex’s Maureen Hendricks Field.

The Elgin, Illinois native was also a member of the Spirit’s first team roster throughout the preseason and training camp.

Thomas, who received a call-up to U.S. U-23 Women’s National Team training camp in January, is coming off a college career in which she netted 31 goals and 17 assists during her time at Notre Dame and Georgetown.
